Chapter: 4147
Despite all the hurt he had caused, despite her loathing him, his feelings remained. He couldn't help but think of her, perhaps a reflection of his despicable nature.
Alexis saw something unsettling in Leonel's eyes.
Taking a step back, her voice trembling, she asked, “What do you want, Leonel?"
Leonel reached out, gently smoothing her hair, and said, “I'll take you and Evelyn abroad. I've spoken to some renowned doctors, and the expert team is ready. Once we arrive, Evelyn can start her treatment immediately."
Suddenly, a realization struck Alexis, and she exclaimed in disbelief, “Leonel, have you Lost your mind?"
Leonel gave a bitter smile and admitted, "Yes, I'm insane! I know no amount of pleading will make you and your family take me back... Dad once taught me that if I can't have something, I should take it by force!"
He wrapped an arm around Alexis' shoulder and pulled her close.
Whispering in her ear, he said, “It was your father who taught me that, Alexis. I still value his lessons to this day."
Alexis tried to slap him, but Leonel caught her wrist gently and chided, "You need to break this habit, honey. But if you really enjoy it, save it for when we're in bed."
Forced against the wall, Alexis felt overwhelmed by the situation.
Leonel was out of his mind. It dawned on her that escape was futile.
Leonel's men had secured the entire area.
In the desolate yard, only a few crows occasionally flew by. Alexis chose not to resist physically, knowing she was no match for Leonel, a former national judo champion from his high school days.
She remained silent, refusing to engage in any conversation with him.
She was escorted onto a private plane without any sign of Evelyn.
Leonel then informed her that Evelyn would be at their destination.
After confiscating her phone, he led her to a private lounge and tied her wrists with his tie, claiming he wanted her to rest during the flight.
The journey lasted about ten hours before the plane finally touched down.
When Alexis opened her eyes, she was greeted by a very bright environment.
Leonel was there holding Evelyn. The little girl's face lit up with excitement when she saw Alexis, showing no signs of fear. Alexis knew that Evelyn must have been gently persuaded to come, but she chose not to reveal the truth to her.
